Mike,

Do you still advocate Smith//MMPO ?
It seems very similar to Winning Votes (MAM, Schulze, River,
Smith//MinMax) except less decisive.
35 A>B
25 B
40 C
B>C 60-40, C>A 40-35, A>B 35-25. MPO scores: C60 < A40 = B40.
WV elects B, but MMPO gives an A=B tie. B winning fails CD and A
winning fails Plurality.
Also (like WV) it fails Mono-switch-plump.
25 A>B
26 B>C
23 C>A
22 C
04 A
C>A 71-29, A>B 52-26, B>C 51-49. MPO scores: C51 < B52 < A71
MMPO and WV elect C, but if the 4A ballots change to 4C then they
both elect B.
25 A>B
26 B>C
23 C>A
26 C
C>A 75-26, A>B 48-26, B>C 51-49. MPO scores: B48 < C51 < A75.
In my view C, being both positionally dominant and uncovered, is the
prettiest winner.
